$ cd $BEA_HOME

Extract the contents of the weblogic610sp3_hpipf_supp.jar file. This step will overwrite some shell scripts and create new directories for the native libraries built on the HP-UX 11i v1.6 platform.

$ jar -xvf weblogic610sp3_hpipf_supp.jar

Replace @BEA_HOME and @JAVA_HOME with the vaule of BEA_HOME and JAVA_HOME for following shell scripts:

$WL_HOME/lib/unix/nodemanager.sh
$WL_HOME/config/examples/setExamplesEnv.sh
$WL_HOME/config/examples/startExamplesServer.sh
$WL_HOME/config/mydomain/setEnv.sh
$WL_HOME/config/mydomain/startWebLogic.sh
$WL_HOME/config/mydomain/startManagedWebLogic.sh
$WL_HOME/config/petstore/startPetStore.sh
$WL_HOME/config/startNodeManager.sh
$WL_HOME/samples/examples/tutorials/migration/banking/setMigrationEnv.sh

where WL_HOME=$BEA_HOME/wlserver6.1.

Set the correct execution modes on the contents of the WL_HOME/bin and WL_HOME/lib directories. Example:

$ chmod +x $WL_HOME/bin/*
